of the State. Speaking for Georgia, we
may say that the State would find such a
tax very comfortable addition to its rev

There are too many make believe peda
gogues who have no pride IN their profes-
sion, and who have little care for the great
interest committed to their charge. While
they are waiting TO determine whether
they shall be lawyers, doctors or preach
ers, they try to make expenses by run
ning a school. They have no heart in their
work, they value their positions only by
the amount of money that they can make,
and the result is that Ee have slipshod
methods in our primary schools, and OF
course an inferior quality Of what is
called education. y Charleston News

The Raleigh STATE CHRONICLE has en-
tered upon new volume. The CHRONICLE
j. one of our most valued exchanges BY
its enterprise and diligent attention TO
business; by persistent support OF the
rights and interest Of the people; by en-
couraging courtesy i'll discussion; by
careful scrutiny and philosophical treat
nent Of current themes; and by the gen
erous. manly and liberal course it pursues,
the CHRONICLE has won hosts OF friends
and public esteem and now gives full as
surance that it will long retain its exalted
position. That such may be its future Is
the Messengers most cordial wish our
friend, Josephus Daniels, Esq, deserves
all of it Wilmington Messenger.
Mr. Powdery IS quoted as declaring
that he ''does not look for any serious Ia
Dor difficulties during the coming year
and does not think there will be any great
strikes. IF any difficulty arises it will
be settled by arbitration" he says; 1T IS
the easiest way out of difficulty" If
Mr.. Powderly were as successful IN man
aging his order outside the hall of cOnven-
ton as he is in compelling the delegates
to his will in secret assembly, this would
be very encouraging. 1t cannot be forgot
ten. however that Mr.. Powderly has con-
tinualIv expressed himself opposed to
strikes and as detesting the boycott, while
these methods of coercion have been con
stantlv used in the name of his organlza-
ton with disastrous effects upon industry.
